We played small map - That can skew the starts. I like a map slightly bigger than small.

For duels small maps can give one player a crummy start.

yes...or put you within 8 squares of someones capital.....

but the larger the map...the more of a set spitting contest it becomes.....at least on small maps skirmishes happen more frequently
